Finished EZ's blanket...now I see a pinwheel

[by the way...10 more inches of snow in one day...welcome to SPRING!]


Those loose threads being tucked the blanket is finished!


The ugly symbol has dissappeared and it has become a pinwheel. It reminds me of a quilt block.





What a relief...


I finished the edge with an applied i-cord using (but modifying) the instructions from here.



It was fun and fast to make this applied i-cord. It makes the edge look very complete, and since it's for a boy, very appropriate.


The edge is so neat, I keep looking at it, in admiration. Try it on your next edge. Perhaps, on a dishcloth, so you can see quick results. It is the same on both sides.

(nice blue fingers!...the blanket is the right color...sort-of...Oh, no! now you know I'm from the planet Blueto...sigh...!!)


The green cover I made in one day. It is for my kitchen stool. You have to know that we've had this black vinyl kitchen stool in that corner since...for-eh-ver! Its assignment was to give repose to those on the phone, and while cooking or baking, a small respite.

Now every-bo-dy has a cell phone, but everybody who gets or makes a phone call while in the kitchen, goes to sit at the stool...force of habit, to the max! Still have the land line, need a new one--it is acting up.



The green matches the green on the wallpaper, although it does not appear like it in this pic.



The cover is snug enough that it should not come off [it has been put to the test, and passed]


I'll leave you with this:

"Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth." Psalm 57:5

In His hands, ^__^
